DioWarriors is a small company with a lot of high quality products. We design our own stuff and manufacture them in-house. The benefit is that we control all aspects of production, save costs by eliminating outsourcing to China (which involves many hidden expenses), and going from production to sales is quick. We strongly believe in using machines as much as possible to automate manufacturing. One of these machines is our CNC milling machine.

We use the Nomad 883 which is an accurate milling machine for small scale parts. A CNC milling machine is similar to a 3D Printer in that it relies on software to follow a path layer-by-layer. But what is different than from a 3D Printer is that a CNC milling machine removes material. This is called "subtractive manufacturing."

DioWarriors uses a number of subtractive manufacturing machines. The primary role of this machine is to mill our molds of some of our larger parts.

A video showing how to assemble the spigot piece to our propane tank. Being so small, the spigot comes as a separate piece to be easier for painting, sanding, or other things you might want to do with it. When it comes time to attach the spigot to the tank, it fits with a snap. Glue may be required for a permanent attachment.
